The Rivers Conservation Youth Fly Fishing Camp is a coldwater conservation camp, with a balance of classroom instruction and hands on learning in both coldwater conservation and fly fishing.
The purpose of the camp is to educate students in the importance of coldwater conservation. Our graduates will be the leaders of their communities in years to come.
Classes include principles of ecology, hydrogeology, wetlands, trout stream entomology, aquatic invertebrates, hydrology, watersheds, the biology of pollution, reptiles and amphibians, trout behavior, and riparian corridors.
Instructors lead streamside programs to collect aquatic invertebrates, review angling history, electro-fishing, and conducting field identification of riparian corridors. The Camp provides a balance of instructional material and hands-on learning.
